Covid-19 Policies
Everyone is asking the same question: how will the Hebrew School operate under the current concerns about the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic?
The answer is straight forward: we are following the situation closely and making sure to imply and comply by all provincial and City guidelines.
At the moment – with the spread of the pandemic in Ontario being at very low numbers and both public and private schools planning to open in September – we are planning to open up IN PERSON as well.
We will constantly be alert and follow all the provincial and City rules and guidelines to make sure the Hebrew School will run in a SAFE and HEALTHY manner.
Our facility at 18 Rockford Rd. is large enough to contain all Hebrew School classes with sufficient distance and air circulation etc. in addition to the other guidelines which we will have in place.
Of course, the last few months have proven that nothing is certain and things may change any day.
We are therefore constantly with a ‘hand on the pulse’ and ready to reevaluate and return to classes via Zoom or other solutions were there G-d forbid to break out a ‘second wave’ of the pandemic.
In the meantime, those who would like to opt for the ZOOM option, may do so as long as they are not yet comfortable to send their children in person.
